It started sprinkling lightly as I was finishing up at the Farmer's Market this morning, and by the time I got home I was completely soaked. :rockon: My Firstgear "Rush" mesh jacket had been getting a little funky anyway, so I threw it, my riding jeans, gloves and helmet liner into the washer. My Hi-Viz yellow jacket had also been looking really dingy up by the collar/upper chest (I don't think I drool when I eat...) was hoping that'd get cleaned too.
Well, it didn't, still dark, and then I noticed the fronts of my sleeves are stained too. The windshield must be protecting my lower chest/stomach from road grime while the rest of the coat gets blasted.
Anyhoo, does anyone have a special detergent or trick to getting mesh jackets clean? Or do I just wear it like a badge of honor? (I won't try WD-40 this time)
Thanks!
